Not standard, true - but "The Porsche Stability Management system (PSM) system became an option for the 911 Carrera in model-year 2000."
Its presence will not prove that your 2000 is a C4.

But don't make an offer until they fix the "Breaks".
If the silver things are Brake calipers then they are probably OK.

Jack up one side, ensure the car is in 1st gear, and attempt to spin the front wheel. If it freewheels, C2. If you can feel the mechanical resistance of the front drive (or you see the rear wheel moving when you spin the front wheel), C4.
Since you won't have the e-brake on (to allow the rear wheel to turn) - please chock both wheels on the side you're not jacking.
If you jack from the rear jack point, this will be sufficient to lift that entire side of the car.
